A Different Annual Company Dinner.

Well, this I suppose to post up last month but I was too lazy to blog nowadays. Too lazy until a friend who used to set my blog as his favourite in his blog, but now taken out my blog address from his. :(

My company had a totally different company dinner this year in January, before the Chinese New Year. We used to had our annual dinner in the Chinese restaurants, or hotels. But this year, as one of the 2 organizers for the dinner, we decided to have something different this year. With the approval from the Bosses, we happily planned to go up Bukit Tinggi for our BBQ dinner on the hill. Since we didn't invite the customers and suppliers like we used to do it, we persuaded our Bosses that we have the budget and pay for all the expenses like meals and accommodation for all staff and even for the family and partners.

We reached there by noon. Had our bowling games, and then check in to the hotel, and had our 3 simple tele-match games. Me and another organizer was shouting in the games till our voice gone. It was so fun, but our throats....so poor us. After the games was free & easy, and waiting for dinner time.

Everyone was so enjoyed it because we didn't need to entertain the customers and suppliers like we had to do in previous years. We just sit back and enjoy our food and drank among ourselves only. The food was better than we expected. As usual, we still had colleagues got drunk. Everyone drank as much as they liked as we didn't need to drive back home this time. It was so nice drinking liquor on a cooling hill. I had wine only that night, almost a bottle I think. Just nice for me to go sleep at night.

Although everyone was really loved this type of annual dinner, but me and another organizer don't think we will plan for this again next year. At least not the 2 of us who plan for everything again. With all the hustles and problems that we need to settle especially in working out the fees to please everyone, we were so tired. Eventhough we pleased everyone, but one time is enough.

The next day, we went to visit the Botanical Garden, The Japanese Tea House, and the Rabbit Park. It was quite disappointing especially the Botanical Garden, with nothing to see down the hill after a long walked. My Bosses and their family and a few colleagues who went down before us wanted to cheat us and told us it was beautiful down there, worth to see, eventhough it's tiring. Luckily I asked some strangers who just came up from the Garden about whether is there anything to see down there. After told by them that there were only trees around, I turned back to head to the Japanese Tea House. :P

There was nothing much in the Japanese Park neither. Then we headed to the Rabbit Park. Surprisingly, Rabbit Park was the best among the 3 places.

The one lied on the floor looked like Pikachu in real.


Male rabbit? Looked disfigured.
